Called 2x CR for gutshot -- hopes for a deep stack

[mahhddgtp]

Hey guys... This is my first hand posted here... There was this guy who was picking up some pretty sick cards and would bet transparently when he would have the nuts or something strong... He would literally throw his stack at them and overbet the pot, and people were giving this guy his money!

It was a 10NL 6-handed table and he was getting some 4-card nut flushes and straights and was stacking off people with aces. Each time he would have monster hands or nut one-carders, he'd be betting HUGE amounts.

I know his VPIP was high, but I don't remember his AF or PFR. I'm new to pokertracker and I don't know how to pull up those stats on him yet...

Well... I was looking to get one big hand with him, because I know when I'd hit mine and he had something like 2 pair he would pay me off... There's 2 situations I got myself in with him looking to eat him up...

First hand had a bad turn (post #2)

Second hand... This was my last orbit because I wasn't picking anything up... I raised K9 from the button and had callers. I made a Cbet on the flop and had the deep-stacked, overcommitting Villian 2x CR me... While I knew he had 2 pair or a set, I called anyways. I had 4.67:1 pot odds but I was looking solely at implied odds. I knew if I could suck out that Ten on the turn that stack was mine!

Yes, I got lucky on the turn and it looks smart, but was it? I had 4 outs that I needed on the turn and was paying $.75 into a $3.50 pot for it (in position). Even if I had turned a King I was done with it... I knew what his bets stood for and that I was far behind... What do you guys think?

First hand --- I had Kings and had a disgusting turn... He bet half the pot $1 into $2ish and I called looking to get a fullhouse or pull my extra two outs for a straight on the river... If I improved to a house and he had an ace I had his stack...

I would've been willing to fold the river IF HE HAD BET. He checked to me, and I picked off his bluff.. See below.

If you assume that you stack him every time a T hits on the turn then it's +EV to call his flop min-raise. Given your read it sounds like your call was correct.

Second hand also looks good.
